Extend 12 MonthsPermittedApproval required / Validator£3,554£12,345
12-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
-
Extend 6 MonthsPermittedApproval required / Validator£2,894£11,685
6-month extension preserves value against immediate disposal while residual pressure and servicing drag stay controllable.
-
Trade SalePermittedApproval required / Validator£464£9,255
Trade sale clears the vehicle with stronger execution certainty once carrying cost and channel friction are priced into the route.
-
AuctionBaseline / Current PlanApproval required / Validator£0£8,791
Auction is the fastest credible exit once mileage, condition, and time-to-clear pressure are priced into the decision.
-
Manual ReviewPermittedApproval required / Validator-£263£8,528
Manual review is being held as the controlled path because treatment, arrears, or policy friction prevents straight-through release.
